October 24, 2017 by Ramon Angel Leave a Comment

Top Cow Productions is excited to announce a new original graphic novel by Matt Hawkins and Raffaele Ienco: STAIRWAY.

In STAIRWAY, a genetic researcher discovers information encoded in our DNA from millions of years ago. This data includes schematics on how to build biological entities, advanced technologies and other things not yet understandable. STAIRWAY is a story about second chances, the cost of the pursuit of knowledge, the balance between work and family and an exploration of what it means to be human.

The Kickstarter to crowdfund the first printing has commenced bringing the 128-page graphic novel to Top Cow fans directly with some exciting incentives that won’t be available anywhere else. There will be limited edition Top Cow 25th anniversary mini-lithos, buttons, and an exclusive STAIRWAY cover only available through Kickstarter.

Comic Preview: September Mourning, Vol. 1

June 19, 2017 by Ramon Angel Leave a Comment

Story: Emily Lazar, Mariah Mccourt
Art: Sumeyye Kesgin
Cover: Marc Silvestri

September Mourning has no past that she can remember, only a strange and shadowy present filled with the voices of the dead. Turned into a unique hybrid by the former Reaper of the lonely, injured, and abused, September Mourning is the only human/reaper to exist. Tasked with reaping the souls of the “worthless” by her mysterious tattoo, September hides and protects them until she can help them realize the last thing they had left undone in life. Whether it’s aiding souls to expose abusers, find lost loves, or settle old debts, in each case September is guided by the voice of the Skullfly, which only she can hear. [Read more…]

The “Rise of the Golden Aura” is a vampire fantasy novel about a young Cambodian-American girl JD Bohatip living in the city of Portland.

Carbon Fiber LEGO Bricks

January 8, 2015 by kellyannbrooke 2 Comments

And you thought only carbon fiber was made for exotic supercars? Not anymore. The idea of these unique LEGO bricks came about with LEGO fan/builder Mark Carpenter and his 3 sons. They wanted something unique and cool to make their LEGO builds standout, the Carbon Fiber Tile.

They’ve already reached their Kickstarter goal and you will need to pledge more than $38.00USD to get these black high-gloss 1×2 carbon fiber tiles. As LEGO builder myself, I’m looking for more variety-style carbon bricks than the basic 1×2 tiles and, as they stated on their Kickstarter page, Mark will be adding more variety LEGO compatible bricks in the future. Now that would be cool.

Check out: Kickstarter – Carbon Fiber Tiles.

Pebble Watch Review

July 5, 2013 by GuestContributor 1 Comment

[Pebble Watch]

My Pebble watch finally arrived! For those who don’t know, this watch is an e-ink display watch which communicates via bluetooth with a smart phone. It rose in popularity due to its interesting design blowing past it’s Kickstarter goal by BIZZZZZILIONS of dollars.

Not being a watch person for many years, I was intrigued by the project and succumbed to its siren’s calling. I backed the watch in May 2012 and waited. And waited. And waited until it arrived. It’s finally in my hands and here’s some quick thoughts!

Package:

The box was made out of cardboard and had an easy to remove pull-string. Inside was the watch and USB charge cable. That’s it – nice and simple. Reminded me of Apple’s minimalistic packaging.

Watch:

If I had to describe the watch, I would categorize it as a sporty looking watch. The e-paper display looks good in the daylight and the night time. It has four buttons, up / down / select / back, and a section for the magnetic charge port.
